i think the blue flowered weed in the sweet potato is a native very high in vit C... but its a bit like wandering dew... i think it is Scurvy weed Commelina Cyanea..??

[@junewrogg6137]

You poor thing! Getting wet and eat up to do a video :) Thanks Mark, You are a Joy!!!

[@gardengatesopen]

Hey Mark! I'm in the States, and I've been scheming all week about which Birdies Beds I want to buy tomorrow!!! Which ones, HOW MANY, & WHERE I'm going to put them all, just the whole kit-n-kaboodle!!! It's a REALLY GREAT SALE!!! I'm VERY excited about it!! By the way Mark, I want to let you know, I've come to really trust and appreciate your recommendations!! You haven't let me down on ANY of the items I've purchased! Your opinion has been right on the money each time! Australia is really putting out some good products too!! I must admit, I'm getting hooked on purchasing Australian made stuff!!! I'm giving y'all MUCH RESPECT for producing such good quality items over there!! I even bought The Monty Composting Monitor so I can keep an eye on the compost beds I grow my edible mushrooms in!! The team of people at The Monty are a hard working bunch!! They really DO care about putting out a high quality item! You mentioned in your video about them that The Monty might be a little glitchy at first, so I was ready for that if it happened. And it did happen. But that's OK because The Monty team were on top of it like a duck on a June bug!! They've since checked in on me regularly to make sure I am happy with their product! And I AM! THE MONTY is working great, and the app it has allows me to know what's happening outside in those woodchip mushroom beds without me having to go out in the cold! I'm really enjoying it! Thanks for the video today!! As someone from Texas, we never complain about the rain! And one of my favorite things to do is garden in the rain!! Oh! And if you see your friend Peter Nicol, could you please tell him I received my Son Of Prong pry bar just a few days ago & it's in perfect shape!! (As IF anything in shipping could have messed it up!!) It's funny, I actually couldn't quite remember which one I had ordered! But I DID remember he had some illness going on back when I did order it. And honestly, I'm not one to throw around money, but for some reason, with Peter, even if the Prong had never come, I would've been ok with that. His story really touched me. I hope he's still doing well now that he's out of the hospital. I wanted to mention that because I had forgotten which Prong I ordered, so when it got here a few days ago, it was like opening a Christmas gift!! I JUST LOVE USING IT TOO!! That wonderful tool hasn't had a days rest since it got here!! I'm VERY HAPPY I ordered it! And I didn't mind waiting for it either! Thanks Again to YOU for all the wonderful tool recommendations!!

[@epicgardening]

So excited to get these out to gardeners' doorsteps here in the USA! We made a TON of product changes. P.S. If you're in the USA, tomorrow (Friday November 24th) you can get 40% off all of the Legacy models that we're discontinuing as we begin offering the Next Generation of beds! Cheers Mark, and Happy Thanksgiving! - Kevin EDIT: The sale is now over, and for some of the confusion in the comments below - we offered 40% off of the Legacy beds Friday, November 24th all day - which was the only time we ever advertised that offer. We did a "4 Days of Deals" sale structure this year, so to the comments below saying that they were falsely advertised to and it was only 25% off, that is just factually inaccurate. We were at 40% off all Friday November 24th, then the day changed and thus the deal changed per the "4 Days of Deals" structure. - Kevin

[@AndreasScout]

You may not know this but during covid we sent out links to your videos and channel to local friends, acquaintances here in switzerland. It was a huge success. fathers were building their own raised garden bed with their sons, single moms bought one like birdies and taught their daughters to grow even when they were living on an apartment with a balcony. the only person that wasnt that happy ( at least at first) was the delivery drivers though i must say your channel has been mentioned a lot and i know some delivery drivers that got their own raised garden bed. It is truly a joy to work in the garden no matter if you are 3.5 years old. 35 years old or nearly 90. Much love and blessings from Switzerland

[@Selfsufficientme]

Thanks for letting me know @AndreasScout and thank you for sharing the "let's get into it" spirit! Love back and I can't wait to visit sensational Switzerland again soon. Cheers :)

[@openmind5973]

[@AnotherAlec]

watching your videos helped keep me sane during lock down in Melbourne while I was stuck in my apartment in the city, it also ignited my passion for veggie gardening (that up until then didn't exist!), I was eventually able to move out to my house and now on my second season of planting now and loving it! keep up the amazing content, can't wait for the potato video!

Well Mr. 'Mark', I cannot give you a half hug from where I am (US), but for a moment pretend that you are receiving one from me, simply because of you and for standing in the rain. 😊😉

[@Pilawaag]

Your channel was the main reason I started gardening. It was something I never really cared about growing up, but your message of self-sufficiency really inspired me. I just finished up my third season, with this one being the best yet in terms of yields! I'm still keeping my operations relatively small (mainly for my wife's sanity) but I've learned quite a bit over the last few years by just "getting into it." it is unlikely I'll ever be able to tell you in person since I live in the US, but I think its fitting that on our Thanksgiving holiday, I say thank you Mark for being such an inspiration and valuable resource to all of us! You are a true blessing!

[@Selfsufficientme]

Thank you mate. Well, without kind people like you and so many others watching and sharing my content around I'd still be talking to myself in the backyard... All the best :)

[@creatinghanley]

Thank you, Mark, for creating this channel. I love your personality and content. Today is Thanksgiving holiday in the USA, so I’m sending you a big gracious thumbs up, cheers!

[@karenyhogan5196]

First ones I had seen were on your KZbin videos. Then you talked about Keven in San Diego, California. I watched both of you and your gardening in Birdies Raised Garden Beds. I needed some to relieve my heart of the pressure of bending over. I had this year use of my 4 beds in the greenhouse. I bought 3 more and looking at another couple smaller 30" tall in you outside garden area. I would have bought through you but needed them sooner and Keven had a special. Thank you

[@martysgarden]

Hi Mark, I am still loving my Birdie beds that you donated to my garden. They are still going strong and giving me food daily!

[@james4066]

I just doubled my count of raised beds from 3 to 6 this year, turning this suburban extra long driveway into a garden instead! Who needs to park an RV and a boat, when you can grow food!

[@sanjuansteve]

Hello my friend. I just created my first handful of raised garden beds, partially inspired by you. I used a simple wire mesh formed into a circle and lined with a landscape filter fabric. It was the most simple and low cost method I could think of. I can't wait to get them filled and seeded. :D

[@minecraftsalad69]

That story at the end was so nice! Gardening has changed so many of our lives

[@StayPrimal]

Sorry for the long message I just drank coffee. In the past week I've been doing a marathon of your videos :) Pretty much watching you all day long. You did (And still do) an amazing job on your channel. Remember the incredible impact you have on the environment because of what yo do. Your channel help people discover the world of permaculture like it did to me few years ago, and some of them, like me, might decide to start a food forest on their property because you inspired them. In other word, you are planting a seed in the head of people, and a food forest might grow from that. Let's not under estimate the power of inspiring other people to start a permaculture. We can't force them, but we can inspire them by creating very beautiful permacultures, so much that when they drive by and see it they will be like ''Hmm I might plant a tree or two this week end''. My goal in life is to inspire just ONE person to start a permaculture on his property. This way its a domino effect, and we can slowly repair this world because let's not forget the enormous impact a permaculture has on the environment. Food grown on a permaculture is free of pesticide and grown organically, truly boosting the surrounding eco-system in the process. The food is not wrapped in 10 layers of non-recyclable plastic, it is not shipped from another continent by boat and then delivered by diesel trucks to my plate. Plus all the employees that would have worked to get this food to me, can do other things instead. The food forest make you work physically, and make you eat healthy, which would help fix the jammed hospital problems worldwide, as well as mental health problems, like it did to me. I can go on for a while but this message is already way too long. So ... The fact that you inspire so many people to follow this road is truly remarkable, thank you Mark and everyone in here for making a difference, we are the green army. At the end of the day, who knows how much of an impact we have on the environment.

[@Selfsufficientme]

That's a lovely message mate... Thanks :)

[@cav3104]

Yours and Eric’s channel have to be my favourite gardening channels to watch

[@kdis20]

i just bought two raised beds from Vego garden. Was gonna buy birdies from epic gardening store but they sold out of what i wanted and after being disappointed i found vego and they were 2 inches higher than the birdies (17"). plus they included 2 worm composters 2 mugs 2 solar garden lights and a hori hori free with purchase. Still plan on buying a birdies to compare quality and support Eric.

[@teebob21]

Same. Couldn't get Birdies in the States, and went with Vego. This will be our 3rd year growing in them and they still look brand new.

Thanks for everything you do Mark. I'm retiring from the army this year and your channel has gotten me and my wife into gardening. I can't thank you enough for what you do.

[@Selfsufficientme]

Thanks for your service Corey! There's life after the Army, but it does take some getting used to, and gardening was one of the best ways I found to integrate back into everyday life. All the best mate! Cheers :)

Woooooo. First view. Been watching for 3 years. Love the content bro. I have 4 garden beds cause of you. Thanks for all the help and advice!

[@CamMcB]

Used to garden in the ground. Then I became disabled. Gently started gardening again in grow bags. Then found this channel and another where sweet potatoes were being grown in a circular raised bed. Have added many fire rings on my concrete driveway and have been growing in them awhile now. Contemplating all raised beds in the future but alas there is only me to assemble and fill them so I add one or two a year.

[@calebandersen4334]

[@pamelaroden5513]

I am so happy with my beds, and I wouldn't have found them if I hadn't run across your amazing garden videos. Thank you.

[@velezjames]

You are very informative, thank you. I saw a garden that was made for people in a wheelchair. They used treated: plywood-5 ft long cut in half 4 -4 inch by 4 inch, 8 ft studs 4- 6 in by 2 inch 10 ft boards 4- 2 inch by 4 inch boards 8 ft Galvanized screws Gardening sheets to cover all wood inside to keep soil from touching the wood and soil from escaping between the wood. 4 by 4 are for the legs, plywood is for the base, 6 inch by 2 are for the sides, you can go wider boards if you care too. 2 inch by 4 inch are for supporting inside at the corners and the top as a rail if you want. They lasted a long time. Container soil mix is the best, but your mix should do really good also. Thank you Jim V. Im from Ohio, USA I live a ten minute walk from Lake Erie coastline. I love raised bed and container gardening.

Thanks, Mark. Always brings me pleasure watching one of your videos.😃

[@shinsanhughes629]

Mark, Thanks for all the good advice you post. I'm using both the 370mm and 740mm high beds; The lower beds for tall growing plants such as corn, brussels sprouts, kale, chard and those requiring trellising such as cucumber, pattypan squash etc., and the higher beds for root crops, capsicum, eggplant, cabbages, cauliflower and broccoli, etc. All the high beds are mounted on frames of 2" x 6'' sleepers, and the paths around the beds are filled to the tops of the timber with woodchip mulch from a local arborist. When weeding the beds the (very) small amount of weeds pulled out is simply dropped on the paths to dry out and eventually join the compost being formed beneath. The plan is to progressively dig up the paths when they need replenishing, pass the dug-up material through my rotary sieve, (converted cement mixer), throw the fine stuff directly onto the beds or into the compost bays, return the coarse chips to the paths and then add more woodchip mulch. (An idea I pinched from Huw Richards site.)

I wish I could hug you too! I have 3 Birdies raised garden beds, I’m about to get my fourth. You and Epic gardening are my gardening Gods. I have learned so much in the last year and a half since my hubby and I moved into our house with a bit of land to grow our herbs, vegetables and now citrus. You in particular are quite a character in front of the camera which makes learning such a pleasant experience. I’ll keep watching and hopefully soon I can purchase the new generation raised bed. (Or two)

[@A-contented-Aussie-life]

Hi mark I'm so glad that you get a kick out of hearing that you inspire. My hubby has always enjoyed gardening and while I didn't mind being out there my back issues meant I wasn't enjoying like he did. After stumbling across your video grow a ton of lemons I became addicted to your videos over the past 8 or 9 years. You talking about your need for raised beds to help your body out I told hubby I wanted one for my birthday. He laughed but then each year we bought a new one and by the time we sold our property this year we were growing a lot of produce to use in my cafe. Thank you for always showing that you can still get out there, even if it's just a little bit.

[@catherinesanchez1185]

Greetings from the USA ! Your videos have been so much fun and helpful even though my climate is a bit different from yours. I love all your experiments. I purchased a Birdie raised bed last year and did the Hugel method of filling it to save $$ . Being raised up made it so much easier to care for than a regular garden, due to back and knee issues. This year, the bed produced really well and I'm hoping to purchase a 2nd one and fill it over the winter , so it will be ready to go next spring. Best wishes and thank you!!

Thank you Mark. Always enjoy your videos. Love our raised beds as well. A big Thanksgiving Day hug from Texas. Wish we had some of your beautiful rain.
